Heavy Machinery Quality
For many years, the heavy machinery manufacturers, apart from on-highway trucks, have been exempt from the stringent regulations applied to all other motorized vehicles. With the implementation of Tier 3 and Tier 4 Environmental emissions requirements, these developers and manufacturers are under the umbrella of more regulation than ever before. Having worked with heavy machinery manufacturers for over a decade, Quality Associates’ experts have insight into the unique aspects of industrial, agricultural, mining and construction equipment. Our teams have been involved in the development of:
- Extensive hydraulic systems unique to the design and function of heavy machinery.
- Collaborative Product Process Design (CPPD)
- Risk analysis on all aspects of large equipment including data control, response and diagnostics, wiring and electronics, and specialized logic development.
- Products designed for specialized applications and unique environmental conditions.
- Voice of the Customer (VOC)
